,
Turn off and unplug the vacuum
cleaner before performing any
maintenance work.
The Miele filter system consists of the
following three components.
– Dustbag
– Exhaust filter
– Dust compartment filter
Each of these filters must be changed
periodically to maintain the vacuum
cleaner’s efficiency.
,
Use only Miele dustbags with the
Miele quality signet and an original
Miele filter. This ensures optimum
performance of the suction power
and also ensures that the bag is
used to capacity.
The use of non-Miele dustbags
could cause damage to the vacuum
cleaner and may void the warranty.
Purchasing new dustbags and
filters
Replacement dustbags and filters can
be purchased from any authorized
Miele vacuum dealer or Miele.
Which dustbags and filters are
the right ones?
Purchase original Miele dustbags with
the letter
G/N
.
A "SUPER air clean" exhaust filter and a
dust compartment filter are supplied
with every box of Miele dustbags. If you
wish to purchase exhaust filters or dust
compartment filters separately, please
quote the model number on the data
plate located underneath the vacuum.
You can replace the exhaust filter
supplied with the vacuum cleaner with
another type of filter (see "Exchanging
exhaust filters").
